Run to the River 2017 happened in grand style! The rain held off and we had a great event. Hosted by Stone Brewing, and supported by numerous sponsors, lead by Artisan Hill, our 2017 race was a big hit with all who participated! The Winners’ List

A huge thank you to all our generous sponsors, race partners, volunteers, runners and attendees, including the kids, who provided a big chunk of Halloween fun, in their costumes.

Sponsorship Opportunities

We are currently seeking sponsors for our primary fundraising event, Run-to-the-River, an 8K race on October 29, 2017. Runners will tackle three challenging hills, race through historic neighborhoods over cobblestone streets, and dash along the scenic banks of the James River. The event will also include a Pre-Race Spaghetti Dinner on Friday Sept 27th,, the Fun-Run Mile, and a Post-Race party at Stone Brewing with a Halloween theme! All proceeds from the race benefit the Neighborhood Resource Center.

We recognize our sponsors in a variety of ways, including on our website, on banners, at the Center, on promotional materials, and more, depending on the sponsorship level. Our race appeals to people from all walks of life, but our core running participants are in the 30-46 age bracket, are highly active sports enthusiasts, are technically savvy, and represent a financially healthy demographic.

To learn more about the NRC or the race, please visit our website: nrccafe.org or call us at 804-864-5797. We would also be happy to give you a tour of the center at your convenience.

We hope you will consider supporting the mission of the Neighborhood Resource Center to revitalize the Greater Fulton area by taking advantage of this unique sponsorship opportunity.

Meet new friends and help a great organization! The Run to the River needs all types of volunteers, even if you’re not the running type.
